display technology, offering inspiring new directions for
next-generation technology development.
Micro LED is a form of self-emissive display technology that
adopts micro-LED array structure, featuring high brightness, high
contrast ratio, wide color gamut, wide viewing angle, fast response
time, slim and light design, and low power consumption. AUO will
demonstrate the world's highest resolution(*) and full
color TFT driven 8-inch micro LED display developed with LTPS-TFT
backplane which allows each pixel to be lighted independently to
realize more refined images with high dynamic range. The display
also comes with superior design for low power consumption. An
impressive 169 PPI pixel density is achieved by micro LEDs less
than 30 micrometers in size. Combining color conversion
technologies, the display is able to yield even more marvelous and
accurate high dynamic range color performance.
AUO has taken the lead in the development of micro LED. This
successful launch of the world's highest resolution(*)
and full color TFT driven micro LED display technology indicates
that AUO has achieved a technological breakthrough. AUO will
continue to invest in R&D resources to secure core technologies
and make more advancement in the future.
